11/22/14 Summary Event in Chile: The United States has declared the Monroe Doctrine that Latin America is to govern itself without the influence of European nations. Since then, Americans have intervened militarily to protect Latin America from these threats. However, US interventions in Latin America, including Chile have been a source of discontent between the two regions for many years. The participation of the United States was of a political nature, which involve blows to put candidates who disliked the United States in power in these countries, such as Chile and Nicaragua.

The Scratch of a Pen The year of 1763 marked an important year in the transformation of North America. This year marked many struggles in America between the Indians, British, Spanish, French, and the colonist. The events of 1763 not only redrew the political map of North America, but the also changed its human geography. Diseases and wars over power and land were the main causes for death and confrontations throughout this book since everybody wanted to gain control these vast lands. During this period of time Benjamin Franklin described, “everything seems in this country, once the land of peace and order, to be running fast into anarchy and confusion.” In the book this is clearly apparent with the power balances between colonist, natives and the present British army.
GKE1 Task 3, Historical Systems of Power and Authority Part A The rise of colonialism in North America occurred in the 1600’s by the British. Britain had sent to North America, colonists which were to establish new settlements in the name of the crown and Britain. Most of the colonists were privately funded with endorsement by the British government.

Also, during this time the industrial community opposed the usage of silver because they saw it as a waste of time and often thought that it would be inflationary. On the other hand, they voted more for the usage of gold because they thought that would be the only way to become stable and maintain a good flow of currency. By this time in the summer of 1896, it was time for both political parties to hold their national conventions. So the republicans favored William McKinley who was in favor of the usage of gold and the democrats would nominate William Jennings Bryan who favored silver. Throughout the 19th century, the only way to get up to date information on such a race would be through the newspaper, throughout the electoral race.
The Cold War and Vietnam Vietnam was a tumultuous point of conflict for more than 100 years of the 19th and 20th centuries. In the 1860s, France had completely taken over Vietnam. French colonization inevitably led to conflict between the native people and their imperial rulers. Communism now seemed like a good idea to the poor, starving, angry masses. As the communist party gained influence in Vietnam during the late forties and early fifties, at the beginning of the Cold War, the people of the United States were extremely worried about the threat of communism spreading to Southeast Asia.
Keegan Welker Mrs. Parham English III AP 22 January 2013 “Cross of Gold” Analysis Before the current American monetary system there was bimetallism which said that gold and silver were legal tender but even before there was the gold standard which said that only gold was legal tender. The gold standard restricted the amount of money that could be in circulation, which harmed the economic well-being of the lower class and especially farmers. A congressman from Nebraska by the name of William Jennings Bryan decided to tackle the problem head on by running on a presidential platform that would change the system for the better. The solution Bryan supported was bimetallism, which is a monetary system that allows both silver and gold to be used as legal tender, meaning that more money would be put into circulation to help farmers get out of debt. William Jennings Bryan made quite clear his position on the gold standard on July 9, 1896 at the Democratic National Convention where he delivered his mesmerizing “Cross of Gold” speech.
